No. It's never actually been used to alter the outcome, only serves to stoke resentment against the party itself, and any legitimate need for such a system (major scandal, death, etc) can be replaced by provisions that allow a large segment of pledged delegates (60% or 2/3s) to overturn their bound commitments in the event of a damaged candidate who happens to be the presumptive nominee.
